Awesome! We transitioned our 5 year old from a traditional daycare to Turtlerocks Pre-K Program and it was the best decision. The curriculum is very strong and our daughter blossomed with the academic challenges. On our drives home she was always talking about the lessons, was truly excited and loved learning. The teachers are great and very supportive. We recieved daily notifications on her mood, how she ate, how she slept... The playground area is perfect and has so many options for exercise and play. ""Free Time"" involves creative play, music books etc NOT sitting in front of a movie! We loved that! Our daughter came home from school energized and excited about her day.

My son went here for preschool and the teachers are outstanding!! I never once in three years had a complaint about anyone in the staff. The curriculeum was top-knotch and he absolutely loved going to school there. I would highly recommend this preschool to anyone!

If you have boys or active girls consider another school. This school is expensive, but likes an easy time. If they could have just sweet girls there they would.
Pros: Friendly teachers
Cons: Inexperienced teachers, Director not very tolerant

I have two kids at Turtle Rock and couldn't be happier with my decision. I felt compelled to write a review after reading two other commentaries that I felt were completely off the mark.
Pros: Low to No Turnover / Family Atmosphere
Cons: Fundraisers

I just enrolled my son in preschool at Turtle Rock. I have been looking into preschools for over a year to feel out the best setting. Within minutes, I fell in love with TRP and knew this would be the place to fulfill my son's academic and social needs. Anna, the Assistant Director, was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. She answered each of my questions thoroughly and made me feel right at home. She went through a detailed tour and requirements for enrollment. I am usually reluctant to make on the spot decisions but I literally knew within minutes that this was my top pick. Unfortunately, there was a waiting list but Kristen in the office worked diligently to secure an opening, which did not take horribly long. The staff is friendly, there are terrific enrichment programs that we are eager to try and the place is clean and aesthetically pleasing. I look forward to seeing my son's progress and I feel certain he is in good hands here. I read the negative review regarding high turnover. Parent's, I would not be discouraged by that review because it is even worse in a home day care, plus you have to deal with personal drama in those settings. If you want structure for your child, this really appears to be a good place. The staff also appears to have very fun, loving attitudes as well. Tuition is also very reasonable for full day, which is what I need as a single parent. It does not include food but it is about $30/wk cheaper than Kindercare. They do offer hot meals though at a fairly reasonable price. One of my hot buttons was minimal days of closure. They only have about 3 staff development days and major holidays off.
Pros: Low Tuition, Friendly Environment, Hours
Cons: No meals provided

I have a 2 and 3 year old and hardly find the time to write this review - but I felt it was important to help other moms like me. I visited around 25 preschools in the area and chose to waitlist my kids at Turtlerock Preschool (even though many others had immediate opening) for many reasons. The front office staff and the director were so personable and friendly, and so were all the teachers! The minute I walked into the secure facility I KNEW this was THE SCHOOL for my kids! Upon receiving a thorough tour of the ultra-clean facilities, I was even more impressed and couldn't wait to get my kids in. I am the pickiest person that I know and there was not one thing I could find wrong with the school! I finally got in and it was well worth the wait. This is the picture of the type of preschool I had always pictured my kids attending. Now I can go back to work with a peace of mind knowing that my kids are in a happy & nurturing environment!

Both our son and daughter love their teachers. Lots of new things added to the school this last year and after touring other schools in the area we know we made the right choice. Teachers and front office staff are all so nice and helpful
Pros: friendly, helpful teachers
Cons: a little far from where I live, but worth the drive

We left the school two months ago because of a job transfer. I was so sorry to leave. We have had 3 children go to Turtle Rock and have had such a great time. They were one of the few schools that take infants where we lived and it was so hard to leave each baby but the care given the children was so warm that it made it an easy transition. My oldest was there from age 2 months through kindergarten. Their costs are reasonable and even though tuition has gone up a little we can see the money is being put back into the hiring of good teachers and adding new things to the classrooms. Now that we are at a new school we realize how good Turtle Rock was. The new school is okay but we miss the family atmosphere and unlike Turle Rock which is locally owned, the new school is run by a large national corporation and so there is little personal interaction. The long waiting list is understandable in order to get into Turtle Rock considering the good reputation (over 29 years in its location) but it can be frustrating -- but well worth the wait. Also anytime I had a question or concern I was given a lot of time and was always happy with the communication.
Pros: Listen to parents, family oriented, great teachers
Cons: Wish they had more parking space
more

I have had two children in the school and have had nothing but wonderful experiences. The teachers are all loving and kind and my daughter went into first grade totally prepared for elementary school. The new owners have added so many wonderful new things to the school and continues to add improvements. The rooms are bright and attractive and the security is first class
Pros: Warm teachers, bright environment
Cons: far for me to drive
more

This school used to have a great reputation among the community and family. It is accredited and the tuition fee is reasonable. But as the previous review mentioned there is a high teacher turn over. I just heard that the kindergarten teacher who has been a wonderful teacher just left not that long ago.
Pros: It's cheaper than other preschools (but you get what you pay for)
Cons: High teacher turn over, low quality program.

This was a good preschool many years back. Not anymore. New owner took our money since last December 2007 and still have not found a spot for her. We even gave her more money only to find out the place has a high turn over of teachers and there rude. No way am i sending my daughter there. Beware. Do the research you will see the many problems. Dont be fooled!
Pros: Close by.
Cons: High turn over of teachers. Owner and staff rude!

i would like to give a wholehearted positive review for turtle rock preschool. we have been there for just over a year, and really love it. the teachers are great, enthusiastic, fair, loving, and most have been there quite some time. there is a fairly low turnover rate (i believe the teachers are well paid and get good benefits.) there is plenty of free play indoors and out. the teachers helped my daughter through potty training (probably better than i could have done myself.) she loves it and most days does not want to leave when we show up to get her. they serve a hot lunch and then have nap time daily (i believe there is a small group of kids that don't nap, but they have quiet time away from the sleepers.) for our family this is a great place. we needed a full day of school to accommodate work schedules, but wanted less of a day care and more of a preschool, which this is. the only thing i would caution you about is that all the kids go to the playground together, and it can seem a bit chaotic...but there is a strong teacher presence on the play ground, and i have not ever seen anything too crazy. my daughter seems to hold her own on the playground, and i have never been worried. they do great arts and crafts too! i hope this helps with your decisions! a happy parent
